- Full title :Mind, brain, and language : multidisciplinary perspectives / edited by Marie T. Banich, Molly Mack.
Summary
"Marie T. Banich and Molly Mack have edited a collection of 11 invited chapters from researchers (and have contributed two of their own chapters) to create a volume organized around five major topics - language emergence; influence, and development; mode of language and language processing; the neurological bases of language; language disruption and loss; and dual-language systems. Topics range from the evolution of language and child-language acquisition to brain imaging and the "bilingual brain."" "To maintain continuity throughout care has been taken to ensure that the chapters have been written in a style accessible to scholars across many disciplines from anthropological and psycholinguistics to cognitive science and neurobiology. Because of its depth and breadth, this book is appropriate both as a textbook in a variety of undergraduate and graduate-level courses and as a valuable resource for researchers and scholars interested in further understanding the background of an current developments in our understanding of the mind/brain/language relationship."--Jacket.
